Religion See other Religion Articles Title: Racial Bias in News Coverage Comparing the Duke Lacrosse Team “Rape” Coverage to the torture, rape and murder of Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom For more than a year the District Attorney in the area of Duke University accused members of the Lacrosse team of a rape against an African American woman who happened to be a stripper, drug addict and prostitute. The politically-minded prosecutor clearly committed the felonious crime of obstruction of justice as he hid exculpatory forensic evidence absolving the boys of any crime. After months of scandalous news coverage and universal condemnation against the Lacrosse team and Duke, the cases were dropped. Because this incident concerned alleged White perpetrators and an alleged Black victim, the prosecutor felt he had a right to criminally obstruct justice to the point of jailing some young college men for a crime they did not commit. The controlled media used this incident to expose alleged White racism and White hate crimes against non-Whites. The Duke university Lacrosse rape story grew to the point where there is hardly a person in America, Canada or even Europe or Australia who has not heard of the case. In literally thousands of articles the media shamelessly brought an anti-White race angle into the case. The chronic theme was White boys from decent families assault poor Black woman. In a lynch mob atmosphere, eighty-eight Duke University faculty members signed a letter calling for the punishment of the boys even before the investigation was completed. Vigilante posters picturing the Lacrosse team appeared all over the Duke campus. To quote the faculty letter: The lacrosse team
may well feel they can claim innocence and sport their disgraced jerseys on campus, safe under the cover of silent whiteness. But where is the black woman who their violence and raucous witness injured for life? Later, after months of unjust and brutal character assassination against the Lacrosse players, forensic evidence was finally released showing them completely innocent of the alleged crime. Perhaps even worse was the fact that racism was the word used in countless commentaries on the case in the press. Only problem was, none of the criminal allegations were true. As raunchy as the boys behavior was, they did nothing violent or illegal and their actions were not one wit more disgusting than the behavior of the supposed victim. Even the district attorney had to eventually admit that fact. About a year after the incident, on March 24, 2007, in Americas most prestigious newspaper, The New York Times, Selena Roberts wrote an article titled, Closing a Case Will Not Mean Closure at Duke. In it, she admits that members of Dukes Lacrosse team were wronged by false charges and the prosecuting attorney may have been guilty of purposefully prosecuting innocent people, but she wails that Duke University and that Whites in general are still guilty of racism. Dont mess with Duke, though. To shine a light on its integrity has been treated by the irrational mighty as a threat to white privilege
No one would want an innocent Duke player wronged or ruined by false charges and that may have occurred on Nifongs watch but the alleged crime and the culture are mutually exclusive. Roberts is, of course, the real racist. She has no ability to see the racism of prosecuting Whites unjustly, withholding exculpatory evidence and ruining the lives of White students simply because they are White and the alleged victim is Black. Now lets contrast the coverage of the Duke Lacrosse nonexistent rape with the actual rape, torture and murder of Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom. Channon and Christopher were in love and pursuing their education at the University of Tennessee. Their only crime was they had a car that the assailants wanted and that they hated White people enough to commit heinous acts of torture and murder against them. The horrendous crimes against this young White couple are forensically proven: Channon Christian was tortured and repeatedly raped for a period of two days by five Black assailants including a Black woman. While she was still alive, Channons breasts were cut from her body. The Black assailants poured toxic cleaning fluid down her throat to destroy DNA evidence. Channons boyfriend Christopher Newsom was tortured and forced to watch the rape and torture of Channon. While still alive, the assailants cut off Christophers penis. Christoper was shot, bound and his body wrapped up in bedding and set afire. Channons disfigured corpse was dumped in a trash can. These crimes were real. They are proven by forensic evidence and the confessions of the assailants. Now contrast the coverage of the real life rape, torture and murder of Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom with that of the alleged 30 minute rape of Black stripper at Duke University. A year after the alleged Duke Lacrosse rape which have proven to be a lie, The NY Times is still assailing the racism at Duke University, and there are currently, as of this writing on Easter Sunday, April 8, the following media stories of the fake Duke rape incident and the real Christian-Newsom rape and murders: A Google News search of Duke rape finds a total of 1,031 current articles many of them by major news media. A Google News search of Channon Christian finds a total of only 3 current articles, none of them by major media. A google search of the Web with Duke rape finds a total of 1,170,000 citations, overwhelmingly comprised of major media. A google search of the Web with Channon Christian finds a total of only 24,000, almost none in major media. Now, dont for one minute think the Christian-Newsom case is some rare exception. There have been thousands of White women raped, tortured and murdered by Black assailants in the last decade alone, and many of their assailants have been proven to have displayed racial hatred during the commission of their crimes. Many Black serial rapists specifically targeted White women for their crimes. Gangster rap has lyrics and video explicitly calling for hate and murder of White people, and much of it is published by major record labels. Why am I the only nationally-known figure who has even dared to mention this horrific hate crime and the racist, anti-White, double standard that exists in the controlled media? I am called a racist for simply exposing intolerable numbers of interracial violent crime rate against White people. There have been major national conferences by mainstream organizations seeking to reduce the quote, Black on Black crime rate. It is as if Black crimes against White people such as Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom do not really matter, only Black on Black crimes do. Make a Google search on White hate crimes and then do one on Black hate crimes. There are less than half the number of articles on Black hate crimes although Blacks attack White people at least 3,000 percent more than Whites attack Blacks. Let that sink in, thats not a 30 or 40 percent higher rate of attacks of Blacks against Whites than Whites against Blacks (which would be bad enough), it is not even a 300 percent higher rate but a 3,000 percent higher rate! I am not a racist, I dont hate any race as a group and I dont want to suppress or harm anyone. The fact that I love my people and my family and that I dont want them to fall victims of pervasive Black criminality does not make me racistit makes me a realist. I am a realist who sees reality rather than the lies propagated by the mass media, lies that attempt to make us think that Blacks are chronic victims of White hate crime rather than the other way around. The fact that I know that my two daughters are in far more danger of being hurt in an average Black school or Black neighborhood doesnt make me a racist, it makes me a concerned father who doesnt want his daughters subject to a greater danger of enduring a horrible fate like that of Channon Christian. The media and political establishment constantly tell European Americans about the terrible wrongs of historical segregation. They tell us how that those policies hurt the feelings of Black people by Blacks having their own schools and their own neighborhoods instead of integrated ones. So they forcibly integrated our schools and neighborhoods. What is the result of it all? It is not just some hurt feelings. It is tens of thousands of White victims of non-White racism and violence. We are talking about tens of thousands of White people who now fall victim of Black violence and brutality each year as a result of the policies of forced integration. We are talking about real human suffering, physical beatings, robbery, rape and murder. How does that stark human cost stack up to the supposed evil of segregation? I am not an advocate of forced segregation and certainly not of forced integration. People should have the freedom to live and associate with whom they desire. People should have the right not to have their child be forced into a school where the child has at least a 1,000 percent more chance of being harmed! That is the most natural thing on earth. Any parent who would intentionally send their child into a school where he or she would have a ten times greater chance of being attacked and hurt is not a good parent, period. No truly caring White parents want their children to be sent into overwhelmingly Black schools where drugs, violence, filthy language, academic inferiority and the evil of gangster rap and gangster rap culture is far more prevalent than in White schools. Again, to state these facts is not racism, it is reality. No one can deny the realities of those schools, and no one actually does deny it. The anti-White crowd just blames every terrible condition of those schools on White racism. But all that does not change the fact of the fate of White children sent into those hell holes. The humanity of the White children, their welfare and well-being are never taken into account. The media speaks incessantly about the Black victims of White criminality. For nine years we have heard constantly about the dragging death in Jasper, Texas of the habitual Black criminal, James Byrd. All people, including me, condemn brutality by anyone against anyone. But, when crime figures reveal that proportionally more than 100 White women are raped by Black men to only one Black woman by Whites why is that not an issue? If the figures were reversed, would not the issue be discussed in the national media. You and I know the answer to that. There would be mass marches in the streets to protest the racism and inhumanity of the high numbers of rapes against Black women! There would be documentaries, protests, books, articles, commissions, and a raft of public condemnations from city councilmen to the president, from local clergymen to the Pope. There are frequent articles, books and documentaries about historical lynchings against Black people, something nonexistent today. Every decent person condemns lynching, as do I in the most forceful of manner. The process of law and justice should always be applied in every case. the accused should always be accorded constitutional rights and due process. Yet, the blatant fact is that in the last 100 years there were less than 1,000 lynchings, with practical none of them occurring in the last 30 years. Compare that fact to the current reality of tens of thousands of White people falling victim to Black violent crime each and every year! You check out the indisputable facts on this issue in the (Color of Crime Report). It should be understood also that the White victims of rape and murder are completely innocent people, while frankly. most of the lynch victims were guilty of terrible crimes against the innocent. No one can excuse lynching of alleged Black criminals or any other criminal, and all decent people do condemn it. But, no one can excuse the rape, robbery, beating and murder of White people either, and it should be remembered that most of the White victims are completely innocent women, children and the elderly. As shocking as it may sound, more innocent White people are killed each and every year than all the Black people who were lynched in the last hundred years! The media tells us that it is the height of moral compassion, justice and love to be outraged at the murder of a Black person at the hands of Whites. But, to be outraged at an epidemic-number of rapes and murders of White people by Blacks, the media tells us is racist. Next time that someone tells you about the racism that exists in our society against Black people, educate them on the facts of the Duke Lacrosse story and the Newsom-Christian rape torture and murder.

I have my theories on why this is happening, and it's obvious that heinous crimes against white people are being covered up, while the much fewer crimes committed against minorities by whites are given a whole lot of coverage for months, even years on end. When I was still living in Houston, there was a brutal murder that occured, two young teenaged white girls were walking home one evening from a friend's house, and they decided to take a short-cut through some woods by one of the bayous near where they lived. They encounted a gang of young men who were black and hispanic, and they were raped, beaten, and finally they were stomped on until they were dead. It was a horrific crime and it was all over the news in Houston for a few weeks, but I only saw one short article I believe in Time Magazine about it, but there was no mention of race or hate crimes or anything like that, it was presented simply as an especially gruesome murder of 2 young girls. It must be unbearable as a parent to have such a thing happen to your child. Sometimes I'm glad I have no kids because I don't think I'd ever get over something like that happening to my child, the horrible event would play over and over in my mind until I'd probably be driven nuts by it. Also during one of the infamous crimes, perhaps it was the James Byrd dragging, that same day in CO a couple of white girls were kidnapped by a Mexican gang, raped, tortured then murdered, but it also received little if any coverage outside of the local community where it occured, while the Racist crime was played nonstop in the national media for months on end, and we still see references to the James Byrd dragging. I believe it's tied in with the attempts to demonize whites, to make minorites hate them. All crimes and cruelties against people are horrific, but we do indeed have a different set of standards going on.

I remember that case well. That case was especially heinous, and they killed the little girls for nothing. I believe perps like that should go away and never be let out. The only reason we parole scumbags is because we're imprisoning too many people for too many marginal reasons. Identify the really bad guys, and don't ever let them get out of prison again.

So you know about that! The ringleader kid Peter Cantu was a really bad egg, I remember when they showed him on local news going to court he would kick and spit at the cameras. I wonder whatever happened to him, hopefully he got jail for life, I think he was around 18 or 19 at the time.
Like the people in jail for marijuana offences IMO.
